I'm using MSI Afterburner because RiveTuner has no 5xxx support yet. No matter what AB won't let me go passed 900MHz. I go to set it to 950MHz for example and when I hit apply it goes back to 900MHz my current Overclock. I tried setting it to 901MHz even and no joy!

Is this a safety feature or something that can be turned off? Or am I missing something? Thanks in advance.

did you UNLOCK the overclock in the .ini ? (look into the MSI Afterburner folder, there's a .INI, and there's a setting that is =0 that read something like ForceOC or something. Put that to =1 and reload the software

ah then the only way would be either a modified firmware for the card or... there is a program, hopefully someone else knows the name that will let you set it farther but doing so will disable the power saving downclocking the card does at idle.
